KaiserCraft: Sassy Lil Monkey Wrench Gift Box

Sassy Lil Monkey Wrench Gift Box
A KaiserCraft Project by Allie Gower


Supplies You'll Need:

"Garage Days" Designer Papers from KaiserCraft
Cardstock, Signo Pen, London Fog Ink, Adhesive, Stickers, Twine
Planter's Peanuts or Treat of Choice

Has your honey been spending some of these beautiful Spring Days getting greasy in the garage? Maybe a little treat will get his/her attention. Yeah, girls get grungy too, dontcha know?

I followed the directions here to cut and assemble the wrench. I actually put the box on backwards, so the bag of nuts would come out the bottom. It's designed to hold a number of candy bars.

I used KaiserCraft paper for the top layer and added a strip to the top and bottom. I doodled with a Signo Pen and inked with a London Fog Dew Drop Memento Dye Ink Pad to add a little interest.

The "Let's Monkey Around" was created using the AM Pleasant font and Silhouette Pens in my Cameo.

I added some nuts rolled up in a resealable bag.



This fun manly "Garage Days" paper by KaiserCraft is available in Speedy Scrappers, so hurry on in and getcha some!

Thanks for looking!
